When and why did you start scrapbooking?

I started scrapbooking in June 2006. It all started in the clearance section of my local Wal-mart where I happened upon a scrapbook album that was on clearance. The bright idea struck that I would make my mom a scrapbook of my life as a gift for all her help planning my upcoming wedding. Little did I know that $2 scrapbook album would lead to an all-put obsession.

How would you describe your personal style?

Simple Schizophrenic. My LOs are pretty simple, yet contain lots of bits and pieces from my stash, and are completed at random. I tried really hard to be a chronological scrapper and it made me so stressed out! I recently gave up on that idea and have never been happier.

What most influences your scrapbooking?

Photography. I always start with the photo and the ideas go from there.

Digital? Paper? A little of both? Why?

Paper. I have been diligently teaching myself to use photoshop and love playing around with the digi stuff, but I’ll never be able to give up the feeling of new paper in my hand.

If you had to make an entire album using only three colors, which would you choose and why?

Pink, Green, and Turquoise. No real reason, just love them!

What is your favorite scrapbooking tool?

My craft knife. I use it for everything!!

What is your must-have indulgence?

As far as scrapbooking supplies, FiberMark Card Stock. LOVE the durability and texture of it. If you want more general then Hagen Daz dulce de leche, yum!

If you had the opportunity to witness one historical event first hand (and take photos), what event would you choose and what would the scrapbook page you make for the event be like?

Great questions!! I’d have to say Woodstock. Having gone to school in the Bay Area I’ve always been a bit of a hippie at heart. My page would be a cardboard colored back ground, with lots of bright papers and embellies surrounding the photo and of course the title would have to be Peace.Love.Rock and Roll.
